It might not be that bad, *wishful thinking-ish* considering some of the scenes they left in SK (Like that Faust battle) It's just one of those things that makes me so excited and nauseated at the same time....

True, I just wish that 4Kids had a vote which us fans could alter the outcome of One Piece (excluding the blood and cigarette). Rather than having Sanji chew on the candy cane seen in the trailer. He could just have a twig or small piece of stick. So that it won't look too kiddish etc...

I've only read the manga, but still, seeing the anime changed into this...ugh! I feel your pain. I don't mind that Luffy sounds younger, but the voice acting for all the characters seems kind of cheesy.

This is especially amusing since he only smokes to make himself look more grown up. Now that he's chewing on candy all the time, what's the point?

Blegh. But I guess kids will be able to enjoy it.

It's just better if you read the manga on Shonen Jump. But the other half of it technically wan't meant to be for kids. Speaking of the original/manga wise.

This better not be like MegaMan NT Warrior. Whereas they show a couple of seasons, then they drop the anime altogether. Not to mention that this would put a huge dent on 4Kids ratings of One Piece if that were to happen.

Down with those corprate America.....we should go Martha Stuart their.....behinds.....

Their going to edit the ......out of it

How much are you going to bet their going to screw with all the other cool characters VA too-Ace, Smoker, Mihawk(I would like a spanish acent for him but knowing 4kids it going to be more like the cheep version of the Toco Bell dog......)

While watching the beginning of it I said to myself, "Hmmm.... These people are overreacting. It doesn't sound that back. I mean, I've heard worse." Then when I heard Luffy's voice I thought to myself, "HOLY FREAKING JESUS CHRIST! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS!?!?" and wish to be smashed by the ceiling rather than hear luffy's immatation of Peter Pan meats Ash mixed in with Urcal from Family Matters. Zorro's voice thankfully wasn't that bad, but pretty good compared to luffy's dub voice which came on my top 10 worst dub voices off the bat.

Then at the end of the clip a voice said, "Do you want to see more One Piece?" Then I asked myself a question:

Do I want my ears to bleed even more?

Hell no! I rather have my testicles chopped off then to hear that freak's voice again.

Thanks 4Kids. You gave me your daily "Middle Finger of the Day". It's way too obvious what the girl's voice is going to sound like. :cough::cough:MistyfromPokemon:cough::cough:

That would actually be perfect for Nami, as long as the VA can switch to an angry tone for her more violent scenes.

I still don't get the problem with Luffy's voice in the commercial. What are you guys listening to when you watch the subs? He sounds like a kid in Japanese, and now he sounds like a kid in English. Match complete.

Ha ha, i can hear it now: "Zorro! Use your slash attack!! *zorro slashes* Good job pal! Lets go hang out with Joy at the poke center!! (played by sanji w/ gay french accent) Bonjour, can i get some pirate chow for du? *chews lolli*"

Not all kids in english sound the same, and they could have done better. but no, they had to use the same ol VAs from all the other shows..... like that sonicx kid*shudder*

This' one battle that 4Kids'll never win. With all this constant bashing of the company. Judging from your guys "POV" you seem to giving the axe on them, so to say. But, who could blame you. It's their fault, they've steppped into the fire and now they can't get out of it.

Or they should follow that saying, "if you can't stand the heat, get outta the kitchen"

That would actually be perfect for Nami, as long as the VA can switch to an angry tone for her more violent scenes.

Oh shit! She has more than one tone of voice or is there little to know difference between her other voices that you can tell with your mad skillz? (Yes. Skills with a "z".)

What's the problem?! 0_o

Is thinking Family Matters was on TV but it's just luffy's voice not a problem? I was so prepared for him to say "Wakkawakkado!" or "Did I do that?" and that annoying laugh.

Anyone else expected the same thing to come out of his mouth?

Now about Zorro. For some reason I got a little Wolverine from X-men vibes (I mean is you get rid of Wolveriences scrathy voice or give Zorro the scrathy voice.) . I was waiting for him to end his sentences with "bub".

I'll try to respond to the question, although the wording is such that I'm making a rough guess as to the poster's intent.

If it was an honest question, then I'll simply answer yes, both characters have multiple tones of voice and I can tell the difference.

If the intent was sarcasm, then I don't see what the object of ridicule was supposed to be. Was it making fun of my ability to distiguish tones of voice? I thought anyone could do that. Maybe it was making fun of Misty's (AKA Kasumi) English VA, in which case I have to admit some ignorance. I haven't watch but a small percentage of the run of Pokemon episodes, and I've never seen one where Misty gets as emotional (either angry or sad) as Nami does in One Piece. While her normal tone of voice would work perfectly for Nami when she's just being herself, I'm unsure if the VA could realistically portray Nami when she goes off the deep end, specifically in the Arlong Park storyline.

This is one statement I can completely agree with. With everyone so set to hate the product, there's no way 4kids can gain acceptance for the dub.
